Founded in 1993, the University of Orlando School of Law admitted its first class in 1995. In 1999, the school joined Barry University, a private Catholic university located in Miami Shores, Florida. The School of Law seeks to challenge students to embrace intellectual, personal, ethical, spiritual, ecological, and social responsibilities in an atmosphere of academic freedom. The program strives to equip its graduates to apply the knowledge, values, and skills they acquire to enhance personal growth, the legal profession, the judicial system, society, and the earth community.

The School of Law is situated on a beautiful 20-acre campus, about 15 minutes from downtown Orlando. Barry Law’s facilities include a three-story Legal Advocacy Center, featuring five courtrooms, a three-story library, a student law center, a moot court building, a brand new lecture hall, a student café, a faculty office building, and a bookstore. Barry Law also has facilities for clinical programs, a student life center, and bar preparation and academic success programs.
